There have been a number of news articles recently about server farms
running into power crunches. NSA, as we all know, has lots of computers.
They're running into a power crunch, too, according to
http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/nationworld/bal-te.nsapower06aug06,0,5137448.story
The story doesn't say so, but I would guess they're having cooling problems,
too.
